Morphology
brotastic + moment
The phrase is a slang blend of 'bro' + '-tastic' (from 'fantastic'), so its meaning — very enjoyable in a 'bro' context — is derivable if a learner recognises 'bro' and the evaluative suffix. However 'brotastic' is nonce/informal and the suffixal formation is not a standalone word in the input, so many B1 learners would not reliably parse it without prior exposure.
Etymology
Brotastic moment comes from putting together bro, a casual word for a male friend, and tastic, from the word 'fantastic'. So, imagine a group of friends cheering, joking, and doing something very fun together, and it means 'an occasion that is especially fun for a group of friends, often men'.
